What is a cue’s “hit”?

If the cue ball does exactly what I am intending for it to do, the cue has a good "hit" to ME.

When a cue ball does what I am intending for it to do, a certain feel (cue vibration), sound, and "cue ball feel" is emitted from the cue on every shot.

From this "combination" of sensations, I "communicate" with the cue and I am able to make adjustments if needed.

The feel, sounds, and vibrations "talk to me".

Jim Buss Cue Value

This cue has a couple issues, so wondering what the value would be roughly taking those into consideration.

First the butt has slight roll to it. Bolted up rolls pretty well with no real tip lift.
Second the points are not even with regard to the thickness where they meet the diamond inlay at the top if the point.
Other then those 2 areas cue is in excellent condition. Has gold rings through out but they look stainless in the pics.

Any help as always is appreciated.

Thanks Shane
